Killing them softly: Pests bugging you? Try dry heat
UK company turns up the heat on pesky roaches and bed bugs, claims their innovative, chemical-free treatment does the trick in just two hours
- Image Credit: Abdel-Krim Kallouche/XPRESS
- Heat and run: The new technology uses heaters to raise temperatures in the house close to 60 degrees celsius to reach the deepest crevices and kill the most stubborn of pests
Dubai: If you're wary of using chemicals and pesticides to deal with pests in your home, there's a radically different form of treatment available.
The alternate method entails the application of dry heat to eliminate pests, no matter how heavy their infestation, claimed James Nicholson, General Manager of Rentokil, the UK-based pest control company promoting the innovative treatment. It can be used to eliminate any crawling insect, from bed bugs and cockroaches to mould and pathogens.
Nicholson said: "We use a technology called entotherm. It works by heating up an area to 50 degrees Celsius for two hours. All life stages of insects, from eggs to larvae to adults die at this temperature. The heat kills the insects by dehydrating them."
He said the process begins by demobilising a room after a survey of the infested areas. "We then isolate the sprinklers and carry out the treatment. We use three-faced heaters which raise the temperature of the room and large fans to circulate the heat. We raise the temperature to over 50 degrees Celsius but keep it below 60 degrees Celsius by monitoring the temperature through a probe."
The "kill temperature" is held for two hours by which time even the most deeply entrenched insect dies, said Nicholson. "The bigger the insect, the longer you need to hold the kill temperature. The whole process from surveying the room and demobilising it to applying the technology and reassembling the place takes five to six hours."
Nicholson said entotherm is especially popular for treating bed bugs. "Since it is pesticide-free and efficient and can reach the deepest crevices, we have seen an uptake in its use in homes. Our technology helps save time because we can treat multiple infested areas at the same time," he said.
With no residual side-effects, rooms treated with the dry heat can also be readily used once the dead insects are cleared and the furniture put back in place.
The cost of a the dry heat treatment for a two-bedroom home is Dh1,800.

"Very entertaining!"
I liked the twist and turns of the story. The author gives you just enough to try to figure out what is going on but always adds a twist that surprises you.
I love Lincoln. He is the quiet character, but has a personality you can't help but like and he is one of the smaller characters so I get excited when he is in a part being read.
Perhaps she brings a sensce of realness to the characters.
I laugh a lot through J.T. Ellison's books they are very witty.

Experiencing the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights is a goal for many people. This beautiful light display can only be seen in the late fall and winter months, and only from the northernmost areas of the world. Sometimes, when the lights are at their fullest, you can see them farther south, but this is a very rare occasion.
If it is your dream to see the Northern Lights, you will find that the following eight places offer you the best view of the Aurora Borealis.
Fairbanks may be one of the northernmost cities in the United States, but it may not be north enough to enjoy the Northern Lights.

Visitors will need to fly into Anchorage and then find transportation to Fairbanks. One of the best methods is the Alaska Winter Snow Train. This is a wonderful ride through the wilderness and adds to the overall experience.

BRANDON — The Brandon selectboard has made more spending cuts and approved yet another town budget and yet another vote date — its fourth in four months.
Following a marathon public meeting that lasted more than three and half hours this past Monday night, the board OK'd a $3,147,634 spending plan for the fiscal year that began July 1, with $2,331,134 to be raised by property taxes. That spending number represents an increase of 3.7 percent, or $84,084, from the budget for the year just ended.
BRISTOL — Trent and Abby Roleau always knew they wanted to have their own farm, a dream that few people can achieve in their early 20s.
Then, early this year, an email from the Vermont Land Trust landed in their inboxes. VLT was notifying its email list that it was seeking applications for a conservation project that would protect 687 acres of woodland and farmland on Route 116 north of Bristol village, land currently owned by the Farr and Fuller families. The Roleaus decided to throw their hat in the ring and drew up a business plan.
VERGENNES — Astronauts on the 1970 Apollo 13 moon launch had to abort after 56 hours and barely returned to Earth with their lives.
Unlike them, Vergennes Union High School 8th-grader and space aficionado Alyse Beauchemin successfully completed her mission — a Capstone Challenge Project on that ill-fated NASA operation.
UPDATE: This story has been updatd since it was originally posted to correct the information about Vergennes activities — the Legion is sponsoring Wednesday night fireworks, but it is not hosting any live entertainment.
ADDISON COUNTY — Folks in Greater Addison County are gearing up to celebrate 237 years of American independence on and around the Fourth of July this week. No matter how residents like to spend the holiday, there are events in the area for all who want to put on the red, white and blue during the week of July 4.
VERGENNES — The Vergennes city council on Tuesday adopted a 2013-2014 municipal tax rate of 63.5 cents, up by 1.43 cents from the 2012-2013 levy needed to pay for city services, but not schools.
The increase of 1.43 cents will translate to $14.30 of additional taxes per $100,000 of assessed value, or $28.60 on a $200,000 home.
It is only the second increase in the municipal portion of the city tax rate since 2008. A year ago the council added two cents to the rate, the first change since 2008.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury taxpayers will start paying for their new and upgraded firehouses this year.
At their Tuesday meeting, the Middlebury selectboard approved a 5.5 percent increase in the municipal tax rate for the fiscal year that begins July 1, an increase that Town Manager Kathleen Ramsay attributed mostly to the first payments on substantial updates to the town's two firehouses.
ADDISON — On Sept. 19, 2009, college sweethearts Cheri Franklin and Scott Petrin tied the knot. While they were fulfilling their dreams of marriage, another plan was also falling into place: They had recently reached an agreement in principle to buy the West Addison General Store from Cheri's parents, Dana and Lorraine Franklin.
MIDDLEBURY — The Better Middlebury Partnership honored Nancy Malcolm as Outstanding Citizen and recognized the Rikert Nordic Center as Outstanding Business at the organization's annual meeting Tuesday night at the Middlebury Inn.

News in Brief
Duncan Chides Wake County For Dropping Diversity Plan
In a published letter, U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan has criticized a decision last year by North Carolina's largest school district to end its program of busing students to achieve socioeconomic balance.
"America's strength has always been a function of its diversity, so it is troubling to see North Carolina's Wake County school board take steps to reverse a long-standing policy to promote racial diversity in its schools," Mr. Duncan wrote in the Washington Post.
"I respectfully urge school boards across America to fully consider the consequences before taking such action," he wrote. "This is no time to go backward."
The U.S. Department of Education's office for civil rights is investigating the Wake County board's decision, following a complaint filed last year alleging the move amounted to a rollback of civil rights-era changes that integrated the 140,000-student district.
John Tedesco, a board member who voted to end the diversity policy in favor of allowing students to attend schools closer to their homes, said he was disappointed by Duncan's letter.

Ben Wolf has big things planned for his senior year. Had big things planned. Now what he has is some very bad news and only one year left to make his mark on the world.
How can a pint-sized, smart-ass seventeen-year-old do anything significant in the nowheresville of Trout, Idaho?
First, Ben makes sure that no one else knows what is going on—not his superstar quarterback brother, Cody, not his parents, not his coach, no one. Next, he decides to become the best 127-pound football player Trout High has ever seen; to give his close-minded civics teacher a daily migraine; and to help the local drunk clean up his act.
And then there's Dallas Suzuki. Amazingly perfect, fascinating Dallas Suzuki, who may or may not give Ben the time of day. Really, she's first on the list.
Living with a secret isn't easy, though, and Ben's resolve begins to crumble . . . especially when he realizes that he isn't the only person in Trout with secrets.

PORTAGE | Paul Hyde told police he only fired his gun outside of a bar early Sunday morning because he was afraid of being attacked.
Hyde, 26, of 5451 Aspen, was charged with criminal recklessness, battery and carrying a handgun without a permit.
Police were called to Sunset Lounge, 5844 U.S. 6, just after 3 a.m. Sunday on a report of a disturbance with shots fire.
When police arrived, they saw people attempting to leave the area in their cars. Police stopped traffic. A witness directed them to the car in which Hyde was driving with two passengers. The trio initially denied being involved or having a weapon in the vehicle. Police eventually found the pistol in the trunk of the car.
According to the police report, Hyde's former girlfriend confronted Hyde and his present girlfriend in the bar. A bit later, Hyde was seen striking his former girlfriend in the face outside of the bar, police said.
Hyde told police after the altercation, in which he contended he was also struck, he went to his car. He then saw three men in his rearview mirror approach his car. At that point, he told police, he took his pistol from under the front seat of the car to confront them.
Hyde said the three men backed off, but another group attempted to approach him, accusing him of striking the woman.
At that point, Hyde said he raised the gun and fired. Most witnesses said they heard two shots.
Hyde told police the crowd dispersed after he fired the gun.
Police said Hyde's handgun permit was expired.

"Not as Good as it Should Be"
I have read many of M.C. Beaton's books. I am not sure if I would read another Hamish book, though.
This needed a more plausible story line, more deeply developed characters, and less hopelessness.
The performance is fine but not as good as some of the narrators of earlier books. The accents would often slip and the narrator didn't seem to understand the characters.
It may be time for M.C. Beaton to quit writing Hamish books, and this book has all the hallmarks of a lead-up to a sendoff. I would anticipate that the next Hamish book has him fading into the sunset in some way, and that would probably be good. The author seems to have stopped liking Hamish and the Highlands. Her stories used to make me want to fly to Inverness immediately and hire a car to drive all around northern Scotland. Now she makes it sound simply drug-ridden, depressed, and dumpy. I don't know if the author is deeply bitter or if she's just lost interest, but if you are a Hamish fan, you might leave off with Death of a Chimney Sweep.

About Sarah M-Jones
We are a young, active couple who enjoy working and playing in the outdoors, solitude and community. We have lived in Squamish for past 3 years after living in the Canadian Rockies for the better part of the past decade. We chose to move to Squamish for it's unique location beside the ocean, within the rich coastal forest and in the foothills of the coast range mountains.
In the midst of this very special place we look forward to sharing our beautiful home with you and your family/friends.
Sarah M-Jones purchased this house in 2011
Why Sarah M-Jones chose Squamish
Squamish is nestled in the depths of the rich cedar coastal forest, on the shores of Howe Sound and the pacific ocean, beside the Squamish river and underneath the magnificent granite monolith (2nd largest in the world) known as the Stawamus Chief. A quiet town relative to the neighboring village of Whistler and the city of Vancouver, it is filled with community, lots of amenities and restaurants and easy to travel (less then 40 minutes) to and from the Whistler/Blackcomb ski hill or the museums, beaches, culture and Olympic sites of Vancouver.
What makes this house unique
Backing on to miles of trails in the Smoke Bluffs for mountain biking, climbing and hiking - our home is a wonderful oasis just walking distance from Downtown Squamish. We are located in a quiet neighborhood in the most desirable location in Squamish, Hospital Hill. Our large south-facing deck has views which extend miles down the Howe Sound and to the other side of the Squamish river. Furthermore, our proximity to Vancouver and Whistler make this home an ideal place to land for a comfortable and convenient holiday in Western Canada.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Dear Sarah and Scott,
We would like you to know how much we enjoyed our stay at your house this past week. Everyone was relaxed and comfortable and no one more so than Ripley!
Living in the Fraser Valley, we tend to forget the alpine beauty offered up on the Sea To Sky, turning eastward for altitude as we more often do.
With your genuine regard for our needs and easy-going approach to our stay, we would happily recommend 38167 Clarke to all,
Joe Carl Dianne Emily Patrick and Ripley

I know I haven't really been active on here, mainly because college is very hectic and time consuming (in a good way!). However, it's also because I haven't been drawing a lot of Sly Cooper fanart lately–mostly its been my own personal, original art.
I've been thinking for a while whether or not to create a new account dedicated to just original art (this account will still be here, just not as active) because let's face it, though I did state I do more than just fanart, that's all I've really been posting and it seems people just watch me for that.
So basically, I make a new account in conjunction with this fanart saturated one to start fresh and (most likely) post more often

Children no longer need to send their Christmas wish lists to Santa Claus at the North Pole, but instead should send them to Apple (AAPL) CEO Tim Cook in Cupertino, Calif.
That's the upshot of a new survey of holiday gift desires.
After all, who wants a wooden train set made by elves when you can get a shiny iPad made by armies of Chinese workers?
Apple products are four of the top five most-wanted tech gadgets for U.S. kids aged 6 to 12 this year, according to a survey by Nielsen.
Apple's iPad is No. 1, with 48% of kids expressing an interest in getting one of the nifty tablets. Nintendo's (NTDOY) new Wii U video game console is second, with 39%. Rounding out the top five are, in descending order, Apple's iPod Touch, iPad Mini and iPhone.
Apple's popularity leading up to the holiday shopping season has been growing in recent years, Nielsen said. In last year's Nielsen survey, Apple products claimed three of the top five spots, with iPad No. 1 at 44%. The fourth Apple product in this year's top five, the iPad Mini, is new and wasn't available last year.
Among U.S. teenagers and adults, Apple's iPad also is the most wanted gift this holiday season, Nielsen said. About 21% of consumers ages 13 and older are interested in getting Apple's tablet computer.
Rival tablets, such as Samsung's Galaxy Tab and Amazon.com 's (AMZN) Kindle Fire, faired better with adults than kids. Tablet computers other than the iPad ranked third, at 18%, with older consumers, but came in eighth with young kids.

Stocks soared Tuesday, signaling that the market correction has ended. The Nasdaq surged 2.4% and the S&P 500 2%, their best gains so far this year. Coupled with a solid increase in volume, the two major indexes made a follow-through signal, which changed the market outlook from bearish to bullish. ...
In just nine years, Apple's iPod business has gone from 50% of the company's revenue to less than 1%. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) late Monday reported iPod revenue of $410 million in its fiscal fourth quarter ended Sept. 27. That's just under 1% of the company's total revenue of $42.12 billion in the ...
Top U.S. wireless carrier Verizon Wireless (NYSE:VZ) posted Q3 earnings that missed Wall Street estimates by a penny, but Chief Financial Officer Fran Shammo expects a big Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhone 6 quarter in Q4 and said the company had the highest order backlog ever, compared with previous ...
McDonald's didn't try to supersize its disappointing third-quarter results Tuesday, with its CEO saying the fast food giant must "fundamentally change." But winning over new diners without alienating its existing base won't be easy. The world's No. 1 restaurant operator earned $1.35 excluding a ...
Wireless revenue growth has slowed at Verizon Communications, but its CFO says mobile video and M2M services will provide long-term upside once ongoing promotional battles lose steam. Fran Shammo, Verizon's (NYSE:VZ) CFO, disclosed the wireless firm's machine-to-machine (M2M) revenue for the first ...

Vike-Link October 2014
From the Office of the Principal,
As we enter October, make sure you are aware of various activities from the
Vike-Hike, testing day, homecoming week, first quarter ending, and the junior ring ceremony
Some Getting Involved activities:
Wednesday, October 1 is Vike-Hike.
Saturday, October 4 is the homecoming dance. We could use parent chaperones. The dance is from 7:30-10:30. If you could spare an hour or two, it would be appreciated. Call me or e-mail me and I will give you the particulars.
Sunday, October 5 is the Mothers' Club Bingo. I hope to see all of you there.
Monday, October 6 is the first day when all student need to be in dress code. Students should wear STL polo's. If a student wears an undershirt under the polo, it must be a white t-shirt. Students must wear dress pants with a belt and dress shoes with socks. A school reach will be sent out Sunday night October 5 at 7:00 PM with a reminder. The students will also be reminded during their lunch period on Friday, October 3 and over the PA before they leave school on Friday.
Friday, October 10 and Monday, October 13 are shadow days for prospective students. If you have a younger son or know a family member or neighbor in 6-8 grades, please let them know of these Viking Visit days.
Wednesday, October 15 is our annual testing day. This is important that students are not absent this day. This test is important for us to collect student data. Seniors should plan college visits for this day.
Friday, October 17 the first quarter ends.
Wednesday, October 22 is the ring ceremony at 7:00 PM.
Saturday, October 25 is the Laurenta Club Craft Show at STL. Contact school for more information.
Monday, October 27 there will be a meeting for all students and their parents who are participating in Winter sports at 7:00 PM in the gym.
Thursday, October 30 is parent teacher conference from 2:00-5:00/6:00-8:00. Students will be dismissed at 12:33.
Friday, October 31 there are no classes in session
I want to thank the parents and students who have come to me with various issues kind words and concerns. I truly appreciate this. Letting the school know when something is not right or is going well, really opens the lines of communication. These open lines of communication lead to solutions to concerns or issues. Going to the source, instead of spreading rumors or waiting weeks or months to let us know a problem exists, is what makes a school strong. Letting a teacher know that he or she is doing a great job is exemplary. Never think of yourself as a troublemaker or pest because of something that happens at school that you may consider inappropriate or troublesome. Also, do not be afraid to compliment a teacher or staff person when things are going well. My door is always open. Call me, email me, or schedule an appointment, I am more than willing to help you with whatever is on your mind. Writing letters and not signing them, sending anonymous e-mails or making phone calls and not giving your name are a poor way to communicate your concerns or issues. Unsigned letter and e-mails are discarded and phone massages with no names are not returned. Bottom line, if you have something on your mind, call the teacher, call the coach, call the administrator and we will work with you.
I have instructed the faculty to check voicemail at the beginning and at the end of the school day. If you call a teacher and you do not receive a response within 24 hours, call me. If it is important enough for you to call the teacher, you should receive a call back.
St. Laurence, pray for us. Blessed Edmund, pray for us. Live Jesus in our hearts, forever.

7 editions published between 1998 and 2004 in English and held by 226 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The demented Army Air Force of Catch-22, the lethal business world of Something Happened, the dysfunctional family of Good as Gold - all these, we have assumed, had their roots in Joseph Heller's own past. Now, more than thirty-five years after the explosion of Catch-22 into the world's consciousness, Heller gives us his life. Here is his Coney Island childhood, down the block from the world's most famous amusement park. It was the height of the Depression, it was a fatherless family, yet little Joey Heller had a terrific time - on the boardwalk, in the ocean (dangerously out of his depth), playing follow-the-leader in and out of local bars, even in school. Then a series of jobs, from delivering telegrams (on his first bike) to working in a navy yard - until Pearl Harbor, the air force, Italy. And after the war, college (undreamed-of before the G.I. Bill), teaching, Madison Avenue, marriage, and - always - writing. And finally the spectacular success of Catch-22, launching one of the great literary careers

Trampa 22 by Joseph Heller ( Book )
18 editions published between 1962 and 2012 in 3 languages and held by 92 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
La acción se desarrolla durante los últimos meses de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y se centra en una escuadrilla de bombarderos estadounidense. El coronel Cathcart, jefe de la escuadrilla, quiere ser ascendido a general. Y no encuentra mejor manera que enviar a sus hombres a realizar las misiones más peligrosas. Con una lógica siniestra, Yossarian, un piloto subordinado de Cathcart que intenta ser eximido del servicio alegando enfermedad mental, recibe por respuesta que sólo los locos aceptan misiones aéreas y que su disgusto demuestra que está sano y que, por tanto, es apto para volar. La evolución psicológica de Yossarian refleja la aguda crítica que hace Joseph Heller de un patriotismo mal entendido, el cual exige sacrificios inadmisibles. Trampa 22, que se convirtió en el libro de cabecera del movimiento pacifista de los años sesenta, constituye un modelo de humor negro y absurdo en la literatura estadounidense.--Desde la descripción de la editorial

Catch as catch can : the collected stories and other writings by Joseph Heller ( Book )
5 editions published in 2003 in English and held by 78 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Long before there was a Catch-22, before there was even a Catch-18 (the novel's original title), Joseph Heller had begun sharpening his skills as a writer, searching for the voice that would best express the peculiarly wry view that he held of the world. Starting in 1945, with the publication in Story magazine of the short story "I Don't Love You Anymore," Heller began to reach out to an audience of readers damaged and disillusioned by their experiences during World War II. That story dealt with the return home of an American soldier who was having more than a little trouble adjusting. The stories published following this debut continued to reflect people at odds with the world around them, usually featuring the "little guy," the "underdog," the "average Joe" who beats the odds by surviving in a generally hostile and unwelcoming world. Written in what is termed the "New York Style," his were stories of urban naturalism, realistic and straightforward, emulating the work of such writers as Irwin Shaw, William Saroyan, John O'Hara, and, perhaps most especially, Nelson Algren. For Heller, writing these stories was a part of the learning process, his education on how to get across his own point of view, leading up to the publication of his masterpiece, Catch-22. Of the stories in this collection, thirteen were written before 1961, when Catch-22 was published; of those, five have never before been published. After Catch-22, Heller forsook the short story form. Though five stories were published after 1961, one-"World Full of Great Cities"--Was actually written in 1949; three of the other four are spin-offs of Catch-22, and one is a preview of Closing Time. Rounding out this collection of the complete published short writings of Joseph Heller are a short play and several nonfiction pieces, mostly related to Catch-22

Regardless of the outcome I want to personally thank each of you for being willing to step before the voters and to offer them your time and effort. I am also pleased that this year's campaign has been conducted in a positive manner by all of the candidates.

Super scooter
Prof William J. Mitchell and several of his students at MIT have developed a new electric scooter that folds up when not in use.
The scooter was developed in collaboration with SYM, a major scooter manufacturer in Taiwan, and ITRI, Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute. A prototype of the new design was unvieled at the Milan Auto Show earlier this month.
Motor scooters are a very popular form of transportation in Asian and European cities, Mitchell said, because they provide convenient, inexpensive transportation. But conventional scooters, using inefficient two-stroke petrol engines, are also a source of local air pollution.
The non-polluting electric design, which eliminates the powertrain by putting motors directly inside each of the two wheels, made it possible to design the scooter so that it could be folded up to about half its size, making it easy to store in crowded urban environments.
'When folded, it can also be easily wheeled along like a trolley suitcase, and is no larger, making it easy to take along on trains or even indoors,' said Prof Mitchell, who is the Alexander W. Dreyfoos Professor of Architecture and Media Arts and Sciences at MIT.
The simplified design could mean low production costs too, he said. 'A typical petrol scooter has about 1,000 parts, but ours only has 150.'
Mitchell and his team envision the scooters being provided in racks at convenience stores, train stations and other convenient city locations as one-way rentals. Users would swipe a credit card to remove a scooter from the rack (in which its batteries would be kept fully charged up), unfold it for the trip and then fold it up again to deposit at another rack at the destination.
The viability of the one-way-rental business model has been demonstrated in Paris, Mitchell said, where one company has recently begun a similar service with 1,000 bicycles.
The team now plans to further develop the prototype to come up with two different production models. One will be a refinement of the folding scooter introduced in Milan, and the other will be an even simpler model, without the folding capability, to be produced for regions where low cost is most important and space restrictions are not as crucial.
Readers' comments (2)
I am disabled, and none of the electric vehicles on the market that I have seen are suitable for Public Transport, despite the manufacturer's claims. This concept, however, seems to be about right, though two wheels at the rear instead of one would be even better. I do appreciate the problems, but perhaps include stabilisers, as on a childs bike, for low speeds, i.e. shopping etc.
Great product !
